Topic: CA's Chicken Dhansak

[Cory Ander]

Hi AP,

Thanks for trying my recipe and for reporting back 

Using another base and adding nutmeg, asafoetida and MSG is likely to change the end result, a bit, but I'm anyway glad to hear that you liked the end result

no quams about using plenty

You might be at slightly less risk of a heart attack but I guess the potential for weight gain is just as high, with all the associated health risks.

Nice images BigDel.
That's first one I've seen that has steam coming from it. Kudos

Made a batch of the CA's tarka Dhal and used this recipe for chicken dansak and it was wonderful plus the other half actually liked it (instead of CTM ,thats all she has) she said it was suprisingly tastey, didnt take any pics because for some reason wont let me post them on here.But i can asure you it was great probably on the same par as my local TA.
So yet again CA thanks for the recipe.

Sorry forgot to add used he spiced oil recipe as well.

I was very impressed with this recipe. It was very easy to make and perfectly combined the "sweet/sour taste.
Dansak's are my 1st choice of curry. I like the blend of spice/heat/sweet/sour!
I changed a few things although they weren't alterations, they were for convenience, and I had my fingers crossed that it worked out.
I used the base recipe that was provided by the youtube link that someone put up a while ago, just search for dipuraja1 on you tube.
The masala mix I left out entirely, I just put in a teaspoon of Garam Masala near the end.
I also didn't use the method for the dhal. I have made that particular recipe countless times for making Tarkha Dhal and it is absolutely brilliant, and certainly has the taste! It is however a bit long winded if you just want to add it to a curry, so I just boiled up a few lentils.
I can guarantee that this is the best Dansak recipe on here! Many, many thanks CA!!!!!!!

I also don't understand why this is registering as my 1st post. I've put up loads and am a very seasoned BIR follower/practicioner!!!!
